Whether or not we use /usr/bin/env or not doesn't really matter to me. Most of the shebangs in this MP don't even use it. I am just following the official specifications of PEP394. What matters to me is python2 over python. A script should not expect the user to change the /usr/bin/python symlink. -- https://code.launchpad.net/~savoirfairelinux-openerp/lp-community-utils/pep394/+merge/204535 Your team Savoir-faire Linux' OpenERP is subscribed to branch lp:~savoirfairelinux-openerp/lp-community-utils/pep394. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~savoirfairelinux-openerp Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~savoirfairelinux-openerp More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
